Enrich Summer 2021

Page 1


For over 20 years, Santa Fe College’s Community Education has brought College for Kids programs to our community. Last year, we held virtual classes due to Covid-19. This year, we are back on site with a few adjustments to keep everyone safe. We are offering free-standing half-day camps with a lower class size. Students will select one category/camp per week. Masks are required and parents will drop off/pick up their child in the classroom. Students will engage only with the children in their specific camp. Please check the Santa Fe College website for more information on COVID-19 Safety Protocols (sfcollege.edu).

Camps will be offered from July 12–30. Students select ONE category/camp per week, which will meet Monday through Friday, 9 a.m.–Noon. Camp fee is $159. Each student will be given two camp tees which are required to be worn each day.

Outdoor Adventures Refund Policy For Outdoor Adventure Trips —

Consider your reservation for a trip/class carefully! All classes require preregistration. No refund for cancellations made less than 24 hours before tour. * Please call Adventure Outpost at least 2 days before trip to discuss boat preference (canoe, kayak or tandem kayak.)

For All Outdoor Adventures — * No sr. waivers. Maps or directions will be emailed 1-2 days before trip. Lessons are included for beginners and equipment is provided. If you have any questions about your hike or canoe/Kayak adventure, you may contact your trip leader for further information. The phone number is listed below: Lars Andersen/Adventure Outpost: 386-497-4214

Silver River: Naturalist’s Edition *

This will be a slow-poking exploration, geared toward inquisitive paddlers more interested in learning wild lore than covering distance. Unlike our other paddle tour/ classes, this one will only cover a couple of miles in total, allowing time to drift, observe and learn about the river’s plants, animals, archaeology, history and other wild lore. If you want to see more of the river and learn a bit less of its wild lore, one of the other great courses offered is recommended. Difficulty: Easy, out-and back paddle. Half the tour will be against a very light current. NAT0007.1B2 1 Tue., starts 6/15, 9 - 11:30 a.m. Instructor: Lars Andersen SILVER SPRINGS STATE PARK FEE $59 NOTE: Please bring $5 to class to pay for park entry/ State Pass.

Suncoast: The World Of Mangroves *

Saltwater environments require interesting adaptions of the many species that live in them. Nowhere in NorthCentral Florida are these adaptations more beautifully revealed than in mangrove forests of the Suncoast Keys on the Gulf Coast. The same conditions that make this area ideal for mangroves-shallow, calm water with numerous islands-also make it ideal for kayak exploration. Difficulty: Easy paddle on calm, open water. Three hours of paddling may be tiring to some. NAT0031.1D7 1 Sun., starts 6/20, 10 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. Instructor: Lars Andersen OZELLO BOAT RAMP FEE $59

Suwannee River Wilderness Trail *

Paddle one of the most scenic sections of the Suwannee River and learn about plants and animals as well as highlights from nearly 12,000 years of human history. The trip is led by author Lars Andersen, (Paddlers Guide to the Suwannee River Wilderness Trail, published March 2009). Trip duration: 3 - 3.5 hours. Difficulty: This easy, 8-mile paddle goes downstream on a gentle current. Skill level: Good for beginners and pros alike. Basic instructions will be given for beginners. NAT0079.1B6 1 Wed., starts 6/30, 9 a.m. - 1:30 p.m. Instructor: Lars Andersen SUWANNEE RIVER STATE PARK FEE $59

Outdoor Adventure COVID-19 Procedure Adjustments · All boats, paddles, vests and gear are wiped down or sprayed with disinfectant between each tour. · To allow natural distancing between kayaks and canoes, we are limiting group size to 14 people so we don’t cluster closely during on-water discussions or moments of nature interpretation. · We are not doing any tours that require shuttle in the confined space of a shuttle van. So, all tours are round trips that begin and end at the same launch site. · To minimize clustering at the ramp, we will forego our usual pre-paddle “map talk” until we are on the water. We will then gather loosely on the water, where I will give the overview of the river’s history, geology, archaeology, etc. (More of this information, as well as nature lore about plants, birds & other animals, is discussed throughout the tour.) · Experienced paddlers: Rather than launching all at once, we’ll have you launch individually, whenever you are geared-up and ready at the ramp. Expect to spend maybe 10 - 15 minutes piddle-paddling around in the general area of the launch site, until everyone has launched. Once everyone is on the water, we will re-group and head down the river. Anyone who would rather not spend these extra minutes on the water is welcome to stay on land and be among the last to launch. · Beginning paddlers: When you arrive at the launch site, please inform the instructor that you need basic lessons. We will have you stand off to the side until all beginners have arrived. I will then give basic lessons, while the experienced paddlers are launching at the ramp. We will then launch you individually and you will join the others already on the water. Thank you for your cooperation.

Strange times call for creative planning.

ZOOM Student User Guide How do students use Zoom? Zoom can be used to do many things outside of a regular classroom. Try using Zoom to... · Meet with group members for projects and assignments · Work on homework with classmates · Record a presentation · Schedule online tutoring · Host a meeting for a club or organization

What devices can I use Zoom on? · Laptop/computer (PC/Mac) - recommended · Tablet (Apple iOS, Android) · Smartphone (Apple iOS, Android)

Preparing for a Zoom Meeting Days Before · Remember to download and install the Zoom launcher (PC/Mac) or the app (iOS/Android) in advance, as it can take several minutes to complete. · Review Zoom instructions via the external Zoom link found in Canvas. More information can also be found at Zoom’s Getting Started page. · Join a Zoom Test Meeting to confirm your computer or device’s capabilities.

15 Minutes Before · Find a quiet space with strong WiFi that is free of distractions. · Open Zoom via the downloaded program, app or Canvas. · Test your headphones, microphone and camera to make sure the class can hear and see you (and vice versa). · Close any windows or programs open on your device that are unrelated to your meeting. This focuses your device’s power to provide the best Zoom meeting experience possible, and prevents potential embarrassing moments if you happen to share your screen. Do you really want your instructor to know how many cat videos you actually watch?

During the Zoom Meeting · Click Start Video to begin broadcasting from your webcam. · Click the Chat bubble to ask questions via text, share links to websites, and keep up with the class’s back-channel discussion. You can chat to everyone in the meeting, just the instructor, or a specific person. · Find out who else is in the meeting by clicking Participants. This is also where you can “raise your hand” to ask a question, answer a question, or start an intense philosophical debate. What you do with this power is up to you. · Be prepared to share your screen with the class. They can see the tabs you have open. · At the end of the class, click Leave Meeting.

Light your face more brightly than the background to make it easier to see you. · Hold your head high in the picture frame. It conveys confidence. · Keep your clothing PG and professional. · Be yourself. Move physically and make facial expressions. · Microphones pick up all ambient noise, so keep your mic muted until it’s your time to speak. · Remember that when on-camera, other activities such

No matter how many people are in a meeting, there’s probably someone watching your video at all times. It could be your instructor. It could be your classmate’s dog. Doing something embarrassing or distracting, like flossing, eating or using your camera to see if you have food in your teeth will probably be seen, no matter how quickly you do it. Don’t be that person.

as eating, drinking, shuffling papers, etc. are extremely distracting (and sometimes unflattering). · If you can’t use video, upload a nice profile image of your face to your Zoom Account. · Have fun!
